Aquatic Dancing Zombies - A Poem

Kat Vengo
Aquatic Dancing Zombies

Arms bend at the elbow

statuesque bodies glow with bronze

The lady in the front

lips parted

incandescent teeth

bared in disgust

hair long and stringy like the rest

Medusa's snakes coiled to strike

a tangle of orange, gold

fire on a summers eve

burning out of control

their faces appear white

masks tarnished with coal black eyes

flushed with aquamarine in the falling light.

The shrill of alarm in your ears

shimmer of water mirrors

branches stretching like streamers

beckoning you closer

tangle of grotesque frenzy

They dance as if nobody is watching

They dance as if the world means nothing

They dance as if the night is young

They dance because God is watching
